I'm sure that's a defensible trade. The issue is that nobody ever trades 20-year-old superstars!! There have been 10 players in all history who've been worth 6.0+ rWAR at the age of 20. Every single one of them stayed with their team for a very long time. Guys like Trout (and Cobb, Mantle, Griffey, Williams, Ott, Kaline) are what everyone spends their whole lives trying to find. When you get one, you keep them.

But I can trade for him in OOTP!!

You ARE Snarky McSnarkerson today! ;) No ones saying the Angels would listen to any proposed deals for him, either. But it's nice to dream.
